Can't Put the Frog in a Jar

Here's the ultimate 'dork moment' ..you all know the All Wrapped Up set?

Well a friend had a bumper sticker that says "FROG" Fully rely on Godso I thought I would make her a cute card with a frog in a jar.I stamped the jar put a couple Lady Bugs in the jar, stamped the lid...(got side tracked for a moment dealing with my critters) went back to my card and got upset.... "ahh man I forgot to put the frog in the jar" my dd said so why's that a problem, my answer "I already put the lid on it"

She had to walk away so I didn't see her laughing at me.

I was truly stumped as to how that frog was going to get in the jar with the lid on.She has not let me get away with that one...she told everyone at my next workshop all about it!

They already knew I was a dork, this just proved it!

Now everyone that knows, makes cracks about frogs and jars whenever they have the chance.

So there is your history for today. This knowledge was shared with me and I found it interesting and enlightening and now I know how that strange song became a Christmas Carol

Santa told me, "Teach the Children"

Santa told me…"Teach the children!

Teach them the old meaning of Christmas, the meaning that now-a-days Christmas has forgotten, and do not put me in the center, for I am but a humble servant of the One who is, and I bow down to worship HIM, our LORD. "

He then reached into his bag and took out…

·A FIR TREE and placed it on the mantle. "Teach the children that the pure green color of the stately fir tree remains green all year round, depicting the everlasting hope of mankind, all the needles point heavenward, making it a symbol of man's thoughts turning toward heaven."

·A STAR “Teach the children that the star was the heavenly sign of promises long ago. God promised a Savior for the world, and the star was the sign of fulfillment of His promise."

·A CANDLE”Teach the children that the candle symbolizes that Christ is the light of the world, and when we see this great light, we are reminded of He who displaces the darkness."

·A WREATHand placed it on the tree. "Teach the children that the wreath symbolizes the real nature of love. Real love never ceases. Love is one continuous round of affection."

·An Ornament of himself ”Teach the children that I, Santa Clause symbolize the generosity and good will we feel during the month of December."

·A HOLLY LEAF. "Teach the children that the holly plant represents immortality. It represents the crown of thorns worn by our Savior. The red holly represents the blood shed by Him."

·A GIFT "Teach the children that God so loved the world that HE gave HIS begotten SON...Thanks be to God for his unspeakable gift. "Teach the children that the wise men bowed before the Holy BABE and presented HIM with gold, frankincense and myrrh. We should always give gifts in the same spirit of the wise men."

·A CANDY CANEand hung it on the tree. "Teach the children that the candy canerepresents the shepherds' crook. The crook on the staff helps to bring back strayed sheep to the flock. The candy cane is the symbol that we are our brother's keeper."

·A BELL"Teach the children that as the lost sheep are found by the sound of the bell, it should ring mankind to the fold. The bell symbolizes guidance and return."

·An ANGEL"Teach the children that it was the angels that heralded in the gloriousnews of the Savior's birth. The angels sang 'Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace and good will toward men."
